Introduced to Protect Malaysian Families
Bioré introduces the revolutionary Bioré GUARD Mos Block Serum in response to the alarming rise in dengue cases, with Selangor alone reporting a total of 61,080 cases*1 in 2023. This groundbreaking product is designed to provide superior protection against mosquitoes, ensuring a safer, more hygienic life for Malaysian families.
With the spike in dengue cases, Bioré GUARD Mos Block Serum emerges as a critical solution, particularly for mothers concerned about their children's safety from mosquito bites and dissatisfied with existing repellents. The serum leverages innovative Japan Anti-landing technology to keep mosquitoes from landing on the skin, thus offering unmatched protection.
Bioré GUARD Mos Block Serum is ideal for mothers with young children, particularly those who are deeply concerned about the rising dengue threat and seeking safer, more effective mosquito repellent solutions.
The new Bioré GUARD Mos Block Serum is a mosquito repellent based on a repellent technology that makes the skin surface repulsive to mosquitoes. Focusing on the actions of mosquitoes when they land on the skin, Kao has developed a non-greasy mosquito repellent with a light texture similar to body lotion that can expand widely and provide coverage on skin, as if having protection skin shield to protect from mosquitoes.
The product protects against mosquitoes without being sticky and is as comfortable to apply as serum. By preventing mosquitoes from landing or staying on the skin at all, the technology's mechanism differs from that of conventional insect repellents which typically uses volatile active ingredients consumers may be sensitive to such as diethyltoluamide (DEET) or Picaridin.
This video showcases mosquito accretion behaviour on liquid-coated substrates. This visual evidence highlights how mosquitoes, known for their hydrophobic leg properties, are hindered by the serum's silicone oil technology, preventing them from landing and biting.
The new Bioré GUARD Mos Block Serum offers up to 8 hours of protection and will be available in two delightful fragrances (Fresh Lavender and Sweet Blossom) at a Recommended Retail Price of RM24.90 for a 100g tube. Bioré Guard Mos Block Serum will be available for purchase at major pharmacies and retailers nationwide.
